The T20 World Cup 2024 is poised to be a captivating cricketing spectacle as it ventures into new territories, with matches scheduled to be played in the West Indies and the United States of America (USA). The unique challenge arises in the USA, where the pitches remain relatively unknown to most teams, adding an element of unpredictability to the tournament. Meanwhile, the surfaces in the West Indies are anticipated to favour spinners, given their slowish nature and dry conditions. Spinners are expected to play a crucial role in determining the outcomes of games in this upcoming global tournament.

Navigating the spin maze

In the context of India’s spin attack, stalwarts like Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav are likely shoo-ins for the squad. However, the absence of international T20 fixtures before the World Cup opens a door for spinners to showcase their talents in the 17th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Here, we explore five spinners who could emerge as strong contenders for a spot in Team India’s squad for the T20 World Cup.

Top 5 key Indian spinners to keep an eye on in IPL 2024 for T20 World Cup:
